Package: freetds
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I wanted to install freetds, while using a desktop with many kde
packages (for instance konsole and okular).
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
apt-get install

I went to look at http://localhost/doc/tex-common/README.Debian.html,
which exists, but every link from that page is broken. And the page
consists mostly of links.
Those links point to things like:

My organization is interested in joining this list and participating.

YES!!! Thank you! (from my graphical desktop on my dom0).
Let me know if there are any other things you'd like me to try.

The function that returns ENOMEM is actually copy_mm. It returns
ENOMEM when dup_mm returns 0.
copy_mm receives clone_flags and task_struct * tsk. I think tsk
is pointing to the new task (the process being forked).
copy_mm assigns some values into *tsk, then:
tsk-mm = NULL;

If clone_flags does not include CLONE_VM, we try to set
mm = dup_mm(tsk)
which presumably means we are trying to duplicate the
-mm of the task being created?!? and if that fails (0 return)
then we return with -ENOMEM
The thing that returns ENOMEM in fork.c when this failure occurs is:
dup_mm
I still have to see why.
To try distinguishing between the ENOMEM returns, I tried adding
a flag to the return value (eg:
retval = -(ENOMEM | 0x8000)
retval = -(ENOMEM | 0x4000)
retval = -(ENOMEM | 0x2000)
etc
One more clue:
